The mystery of the feedback can never be fully solved, but I think what is happening is the keyboard is holding a quiet low 55Hz A note that is the backbone. Then when a guitar player hits a note with the volume knob down and then rolls it up, it makes a very violin/cello sound. The combination of this with Weir and Phil gets us to what we hear.

Unlike the bot, I work at Shoprite now because they pipe in these great tunes all day long, that's all I need.

Epic tunes to listen to as time goes by - make the most of every moment. Life is a gift - make it better for yourself and others by spinning these good tunes. Keep sharing the good with others.

I quit working at shoprite and now I make $65-85 per/h. How? I'm working online! My work didn't exactly make me happy so I decided to take a chance on something new… after 4 years it was so hard to quit my day job but now I couldn't be happier. Here’s what I do.............

So grateful to you for my listening pleasure!

Really nice - all of it! The Caution > Feedback is mind-bending! Another one for my favorites list!

How did they get the cello feel during feedback?
Somehow the Grateful Dead
condense about 3 hours of music into this set.

50 years ago today I attended my first GD show. I was 15 and attended the late show at the Fillmore East. The Dead opened for Janice Joplin and played a solid show typical of the early 69 era. I continued to see the Dead at many wonderful venues around the country.

I consider it a great privilege to be part of this community celebrating what I believe is the greatest music and music scene ever.

Well the sound of this, the physical recording isn't anything but average. Kinda muffled, sanded. But the SOUND, that music generated by the band is A+, number one. This is laid back, but confident! It's struts easily. The Eleven is outstanding. The Dark Star is good but the St. Stephen is as good as it gets.

AND I WAS PLEASED TO GET TO KNOW CHERYL TIEGS CARNALLY.

THAT IS WHAT YOU CALL UNDERSTATEMENT

this show is great. full of eletric energy, especially early on. the peak for me (as well as most others) is the 11. it is simply astounding. garcia's playing really shines. his fender twin is just roaring with tubular saturation goodness. i really dig his tone in this show and most of '69 for that matter, but its so vivdly apparent and well captured in this show. it is unmasked by all the gnarly effects that would become so much a part of his guitars voice later on. the whole mix is mind-blowingly clear to have been captured some 45 years ago. holy captain trips, deadman!! have a go at this one mates, it shall make your day shine.

Simply amazing...

Excellent show, clear recording.

You know those times when you're just hearing the music, not really listening, and suddenly something just grabs you? That Caution Jam does just that. It explodes!!!

Nice St. Steven>The Eleven, BLAZIN' RED HOT Caution to close out the set, but imho, the shows from the last week of the month blow this away. This Alligator is solid, but listen to the Gator from 2/28 and you'll forget they even played this version. Maybe it's a little unfair to compare this show to the other-worldly fillmore shows, but still, i've heard nary a set in '69 that gets any less than a 4 (sloppiness and all).

So many licks...sounds like Duane A. and Jerry jammin' together. Weren't some of these Fillmore East gigs with ABB?

i am listening with headphones and there is a clear separation of the two drummers, sweet. what a stellar show

There's a popular bootleg of a dynamite Janis Joplin set at this venue on the same date . . . I'm guessing this was one incredible day of music . . . where did I put that time machine again?

Powerful. Very inspired playing. Everyone is on.....not mentioned yet, the last part of Caution is damn near heavy-metal--thick and chunky and wild!!!

this show is absolutley fillthy

i mean i used to not like it when the eleven was sung but this show made me reconsider

everthing from this is out o' line

for missing tracks, as evil pac-man said, you can pick this up.. i haven't seen it solo myself, but i know it was also part of a huge box set..

Killer Dupree, with Jerry on high end harmonies.. this entire show features them in PRIME connection with one another, and the spacey jams will flip you out.

acquire this one through any means possible.

This is the eleven I keep coming back to. Especially for that hot spell after the verse. Red hot - as another reviewer put it for a different gig 'the valves in Jerry's amp must have been burning like red hot coals'.
Beautiful Alligator with everyone on and a big fat finish.

Thanks to everyone for this site, it's one of the jewels of the net. If you had anything to do with it then you are a star - Go to bed knowing you were/are part of something brilliant - w

Best Eleven I've Ever Heard.

They just sound so alive and passionate.

It's sad to compare this to the last 1995 show on Archive, but I guess that's death for you. And, as we know too well, "Death Don't Have No Mercy."

Yep, I listen to this show twice a week or so, during my planning period at school. I would have to say that track 7 is the crunchiest of all the tracks here. Would love to hear the opening songs.

omst clean dead tape ive heard in awhile. sit back and let this soak in. so beautiful, i just wana die.

GREAT STUFF
PEACE

15 minute runaway locomotive version!
This one rages and changes gears like a Viola Lee Blues.

Not sure if anyone knows, but around 1999 I found this show at Best Buy....I assume it was before Dick's Picks came around but it has the entire show, re-mastered and complete. It really is quite something!

I lost those discs, so just as curiosity I looked for it, so I'm glad they'ree still streaming!!!

As with all the other reviewers, I echo their sentiments. Stephen>11 is HOT.

5 stars for SURE.

The opening three songs (DS, St., 11) really offer everthing there is to get from a typical (which means GREAT!) '69 show. To me, the essence of this show is in the 11. This version just totally smokes. The speed of the song is very reminiscent of a Caution or Viola Lee jam in that is starts out a bit slower then just goes faster and faster until you cannot believe how fast they are playing. There are two ENORMOUS peaks in this version as well. The first is just past the 7:00 minute mark. JG is just on freaking fire. His playing is so fast you can barely comprehend what he is playing (and I'm not sure he could if you could stop and ask him). After this catharsis, there is a moment to catch your breath, but then we hit the 11:00 minute mark and, as if to prove you weren't imagining what you had heard earlier, they again stoke the fires as high as they will go. This is truly one of "the" versions of the 11 in my opinion (along with 2/27/69 and 3/15/69). The rest of the show, while still fantastic, seems a bit tired after the pace and energy unleashed during the Star->St.->11 sequence. This a great companion to the Fillmore East 2/11/69 discs released a few years ago. These discs prove just what the dead could do to blend speed, dexterity, emotion, and exploration into one of the most powerful "hours" of your life. This one is not to be missed!! (Some slight oversaturation on the sound in places should not cause you any concern, its still sounds fantastic.)

Words cannot describe how hot this is - now sober up and stream this now!

he phils in all the right places, check out st stephen. Stream starts at the end of dark star, which is a killer version. So sad that so little of it is on this recording, because it really sounds experimental. The band is on fire. this is an "on" night.

How did I miss this show on the archive? I agree with the previous post. This is a great show and superb sound quality as well. The missing chunk of Dark Star is
unfortunate but what's here is mighty tasty. The Alligator>Caution is the real centerpiece. Recommended download.

Okay, just a little shocked that no one else reviewed this yet. Just great stuff. It's ashamed that some at the start is missing but this is superb!! both in Audio quaility and the playing. Unreal "The Eleven" . Fantastic "Caution" !! I really don't think you'll be sorry if you download this.
